Great job, bikerHen!!! You did GREAT for your first tri!!! It's amazing how fast transition times add up. My DH always has transition times of less than a minute (how, I don't know). I am NOT a fast transitioner.
I think just making across the finish line is a major accomplishment! WOO HOO!!! Great race report- and way to rip that bike course to shreds! So proud of you!
